How BEAUTIFUL!! Roses are definitely one of my favorites, the smell and the colors are always so pretty. Your vase of flowers are so lovely. Great photos, and what a great way to start the week! 😀 – Diana

Ooh, you are finding some treasures in your garden, Jen – what a lovely vase you have put together. The foliage is the perfect shade of green to act as a foil for the roses but hmmm, I am a bit concerned about the ‘Himalayan honeysuckle’, which looks rather like invasive Himalayan balsam to me, but I could be wrong…hope so!

I do not remember what a copper beech loos like. I know I met it before when I was in school, but I thought that it was lighter colored than the common bronzed beeches that I see around now. Purple beeches are downright weird looking. I grew a few, but none were designated as copper.
